FO: The concierge and security staff were very helpful in unloading our luggage, and we were given a welcome drink. Our room was on the 8th floor with the best view, and inside there was a welcome greeting on the mirror and a welcome cinnamon cake. My kids loved it, thank you.
Room: Clean, with complete amenities. There was a hairdryer and ironing board, and the bathroom mirror was clean. It was well maintained, thank you. The only downside was the tea sachets in the room weren't branded enough to match the star rating of the hotel. While hotels like Marriott and Accor offer more for the same rating, this is a new hotel.
Swimming Pool: Warm water, which is perfect for Bandung's cold climate, makes it more child-friendly, thank you.
Kids Corner: Located next to the swimming pool, if it's very busy during breakfast time in the morning, perhaps traffic could be managed (I didn't see any staff on duty). They could regulate the number of people inside, as the room is small. They could also open a kids corner in another area to reduce crowds. Since I've had kids' activities at other hotels on weekends, this hotel should be able to accommodate this, as there's ample space between the restaurant and the swimming pool.
Restaurant: Upon arrival while waiting for our room to be prepared, we dined a la carte. One of the items we ordered was fish and chips. However, the fish we received was 1/3 of the size, which seemed undercooked, difficult to cut, and had a fishy smell. I don't know if it was cooked incorrectly or if the fish was of poor quality. For a price above 125,000++ (before tax and service), it seems inappropriate, and IHG should pay more attention to food quality. Breakfast: The food variety was adequate. It was crowded, so we were directed to the outside seating area of the restaurant. There were no cutlery, no staff, and no tea, coffee, or water offered. And what makes it uncomfortable is the abundance of Flies, so if we leave the food and have to take it inside, it will definitely be infested. Maybe IHG could be more concerned about these Flies.
